Paducah Day 2

Hi everyone. Today was my second full day at the 2010 AQS quilt show here in Paducah. I am having a blast. Yesterday, I spent the day shopping and seeing the quilts. Today I spent all day in a class called Surface Design with LYRIC KINARD!

Here is Lyric. She is an amazing teacher and I loved her class!

This is photocopy transfer using a solvent and a metal spoon. Very cool technique!

Lunch at Kirchhoff's Bakery and Deli was absolutely amazing. The line was long but moved quickly. I was completely impressed with the professional way they moved us all in there and got food to us. I had the chicken salad on cranberry bread. OMG!!! I have to go back to get this again. Lunch tomorrow or on Saturday is a must.

These are the final product of our day long hard work. I made the stamp used here as seen above in my practice time. I am starting to bead it now as seem below. This is a cover for a journal book and it is not done.

BELOW, on the left I used a piece of bubble wrap and painted it and then pressed it down. On the right is a piece of plastic fencing that I used to stencil. I used stamping acrylic paints, screen painting, stenciling and now I am beading it. I will show it to you when I am done. I am loving how the techniques are coming together.
